If you’re bloated all the time, even with a “clean” diet, this episode is for you.

Because bloating isn’t just about gluten, dairy, or FODMAPs.
And it’s not something you caused.
It’s a signal.

In this episode, Dr. Nate breaks down what chronic bloating really means through a root-cause lens — and why your body might be slowing digestion, fermenting food, and backing things up... even when you’re doing everything “right.”

You’ll learn:

• Why bloating isn’t a food issue — it’s a function issue
• How stress, snacking, and survival mode shut down digestion
• What your nervous system, thyroid, and hormones have to do with it
• The connection between motility, bile, SIBO, candida, and histamine overload
• Why postpartum pressure, mold, and trauma can mimic gut symptoms
• What to actually do to start calming the bloat — without cutting out everything you love

This episode is packed with real-life patterns, clinical insights, and simple shifts you can start today to bring rhythm and regulation back to your system — no elimination diet required.

You cut carbs. You felt amazing. The bloat dropped, the brain fog cleared, the scale moved… until everything crashed.

In this episode of the Root Cause Rx Podcast, Dr. Nate Fulton breaks down exactly why cutting carbs works at first, and why it often stops working, especially if you’re already stressed, postpartum, depleted, or dealing with thyroid and hormone imbalances.

This episode covers:

• The science behind the “low-carb honeymoon” and why it fades

• How low-carb can tank thyroid function, cortisol balance, and nervous system safety

• Why women (and high-stress humans) crash faster — and harder

• How to reintroduce carbs without “undoing your progress”

• What labs reveal a hidden carb crash — even if your doctor says you’re “fine”

• And why you didn’t fail the diet… the diet failed to support you.

If your sleep’s gone sideways, your energy’s tanked, your anxiety’s up, and you’re scared to eat a sweet potato — this one’s for you.

🎧 Listen now to reclaim your metabolism, rebuild safety in your system, and stop living in survival mode.

In this episode, we’re going straight to the root of something almost nobody connects:
Your anxiety… might actually be coming from your gut.

If you’ve ever felt wired but exhausted, anxious for “no reason,” bloated after meals, foggy, overstimulated, or like your body is sounding an alarm you can’t shut off, this one’s going to hit home.

I break down the real physiology behind the gut–brain loop:
• Why your belly sends danger signals to your brain
• How inflammation, microbial imbalance, and vagus nerve dysregulation create “mystery anxiety”
• Why so many people get misdiagnosed, dismissed, or medicated without anyone asking why
• And how to finally calm the loop so your nervous system can stand down

We’ll walk through the symptoms that get missed, what conventional medicine often overlooks, what’s actually happening under the surface, and the four-step framework I use with patients to heal gut-driven anxiety from the inside out.

This episode is your permission slip:
You’re not dramatic.
You’re not broken.
You’re not “just anxious.”
Your biology is talking, and once you understand the loop, you can finally break it.

If you’ve been craving clarity, validation, and an actual plan… settle in. This one’s for you.
